1. [[Mastication|Masticated]] and insalivated food is cupped by the [[Oral Cavity - Tongue - Anatomy & Physiology|tongue]] on its dorsal surface and the tip of the [[Oral Cavity - Tongue - Anatomy & Physiology|tongue]] pushes dorsally against the [[Soft Palate - Anatomy & Physiology|soft palate]]

2. The jaws are closed. The mylohyoid, hyoglossal and stylohyoid mucles raises the [[Oral Cavity - Tongue - Anatomy & Physiology|tongue]] and pushes the bolus into the [[Oral Cavity - Oropharynx - Anatomy & Physiology|oropharynx]]. When the food touches the pharyngeal mucosa the swallowing reflex is initiated.

3. [[Oral Cavity - Oropharynx - Anatomy & Physiology|Oropharynx]] relaxes and [[Soft Palate - Anatomy & Physiology|soft palate]] elevated by the levator velli palatini muscle. Pharyngeopalatine arch closes by palatopharyngeus.

4. [[Hyoid Apparatus - Anatomy & Physiology|Hyoid]] moved rostro-dorsally by geniohyoid and pterygopharyngeus contracts bringing common [[Pharynx - Anatomy & Physiology|pharynx]] forward to engulf bolus.
